It's a surreal sort of song, that is extra out there because I ran out of tape and didn't know it till a minute or so afterward. That's why it sort of cuts off, yet at just the right moment. Or something.

lyrics

I checked the mail tonight.
I had - a bill.
CDs are round
Answering machines and the
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Bagpipe. Microwave!
Diamond potato, diamond cauliflower.
I ate a burrito tonight.
It was fat-free, had lots of cheese.
I didn’t see the cat
On the road.
Ohh, the cat was hitchhiking!
Bootstring, bootstring.
Have you ever met anyone
Who wears their boots with Velcro straps?
The vacuum cleaner doesn’t work
Between 7 and 8 pm.
Put a capsule of taco sauce
In the middle
Of your sister’s room.
